I can't tell at all from the pics but they could be copepods?

aren't copepods usaully whity/cleary
these are brownish... they look like how an ant searches around goes forward then backs up a little bit then goes another way... it's weird... and there's tons of them all in one little area.. and spreading lol

Do a search and see how they compare to what you have in your tank. Either way I wouldn't worry too much
